Wow it actually looks like the end is in site (kinda). We've done a bunch of stuff in the last month that makes the list almost bearable now. Kilts are taken care of and the boys will be wearing the black kilts like we wanted (yay they'll match the girls). Was a little fun trying to schedule them all in and work with the stores time but in the end our boys were just the right size for the kilts that were left. Okay so one of them may have to gain 5 pounds but we'll make it work.
The marriage license was really easy to get and no matter what budget you have for your wedding it will cost you at least $100 no matter what! Doesn't matter if you have a dress or flowers or food, you will be paying for the license if you want it to be legal.
The liquor license was also easy to obtain. I was really glad we were getting married in Vancouver as the city makes it really easy for brides and grooms. In other places you have to go to the liquor store and pick up the application. Then you go to your RCMP office and get them to sign it. Then you go back to the same liquor store and have the manager sign off on it before it's issued. We were in and out in under 10 minutes and even got to sample a new beer while we waited! Gotta love it.
The girls dresses are next on the list. They go for their first fitting today and I'm unable to come out. I can't wait to see how they look! Also on the agenda is plugging away at the do it yourself list (which seems to get bigger not smaller). The programs gave me some hair pulling but I managed to salvage them and I don't think anyone will know my measurements were off. Also trying to find ribbon to match our tartan but trying to make the pillow still seem cool enough for a 5 year old and 7 year old to carry.
So overall things seem to be on track *knocks on wood*. Lets just hope the weather stays sunny, the humidity stays down and my sanity stays level.
